The Little Stevies

The Little Stevies are a band from Melbourne, Victoria that formed in 2006. Luscious three-part harmonies soaring above striking melodies and catchy guitar hooks is the sound of Melbourne pop-darlings The Little Stevies. Each song's a story you'll want to hear again, as the personalities of all the band members come shining through. Cheeky, charming, moving. When The Little Stevies released their debut EP ‘Grow Up’ in 2006, it wasn’t without a sense of irony. Their first national release marked their 22nd year as an artistic unit – even if the first three of these were spent in diapers.

jack the stripper

Jack The Stripper is a hardcore band from Melbourne, Australia.
“Black Annis” is the first full-length work from these avant-noise merchants. Containing eight tracks with a central lyrical theme of nightmares and personal demons, this album is a harrowing blend of grind, chaotic hardcore, mosh metal and jazz fusion. Filled with rage and unsettling progressions that have been compared to early Dillinger Escape Plan and Converge, “Black Annis” captures the blood-spitting violent live spirit of the band in a highly creative, original and polished independent release.
